**[00:00] Asuka**
Rabbit!
**[00:02] Asuka**
Rabbit meat!
**[00:06] Asuka**
I hope we can catch one soon!
***SIGN*** A Strange Turban Shell
**[00:10] Mutsu**
It would be nice if it
gets caught in the trap.
**[00:14] Mutsu**
Shion-san! Welcome back!
**[00:17] Mutsu**
Y-You brought back quite a bit...
**[00:20] Shion**
It was pretty difficult
as I was all by myself.
**[00:23] Shion**
So...
**[00:24] Shion**
Did you get what you were after?
**[00:27] Homare**
No. You can't catch things that quickly.
**[00:30] Homare**
If we're lucky, we might get
something in two or three days.
**[00:34] Shion**
Then today...
**[00:37] Shion**
What are we going to do
about dinner tonight?
**[00:39] Shion**
This is no time to be sitting
around pleased with yourselves!
**[00:43] Girls**
*Now you mention it, that's true.*
**[00:45] Homare**
D-Don't worry. I'll go find something.
**[00:50] Shion**
It's just going to be rock shells
or hermit crabs or something, right?
**[00:52] Shion**
Day after day, it's always the same thing...
**[00:55] Homare**
I-I'll find something different today...
**[00:57] Homare**
Oh, that's right. If I go diving,
I might be able to find turban shells.
**[01:00] Homare**
I've been thinking about it for a while.
**[01:02] Shion**
Really?
**[01:03] Shion**
I like turban shells. They're good
grilled in their own shells.
**[01:06] Shion**
Do your best to go get some, okay?
**[01:08] Shion**
Good luck!
**[01:10] Asuka**
That's the first time I've
ever seen you flustered.
***SIGN*** Are You Lost?
***SIGN*** Are You Lost?
**[02:18] Asuka**
Here?
**[02:19] Homare**
Yes.
**[02:21] Homare**
The water's deeper here than
the place I usually go to find things.
**[02:25] Homare**
It's probably about 10 meters deep.
**[02:28] Homare**
You can't get large shellfish like
turban shells without diving.
**[02:31] Asuka**
Really?
**[02:33] Homare**
Right. Let's go.
**[02:35] Asuka**
Yeah!
**[02:45] Asuka**
*Whoa!*
**[02:46] Asuka**
*It's so dark! And scary!*
**[02:48] Asuka**
*I can't see anything that way...*
**[02:51] Asuka**
*Where's Homare?*
**[02:55] Asuka**
*Is Homare gonna be okay diving that deep?*
**[02:59] Jouichi**
* Humans can only make*
* out vague shapes underwater.*
**[03:02] Jouichi**
* But you can use the air in your lungs*
* to improvise underwater glasses.*
**[03:09] Homare**
* There seem to be the same kinds*
* of fish you'd find off Japan's coasts.*
**[03:13] Homare**
* If we can catch fish,*
* we aren't likely to starve.*
**[03:16] Homare**
*But, I don't see any turban shells...*
**[03:20] Homare**
* I'll give up on those*
* and get the usual shellfish.*
**(Flashback) [03:22] Shion**
It's just going to be rock shells
or hermit crabs or something, right?
**[03:30] Homare**
*I suppose I could hold out a little longer.*
**[03:35] Asuka**
We're back!
**[03:37] Shion**
Welcome back!
**[03:39] Shion**
Look! Look! We found this!
**[03:41] Shion**
We thought it might make a good pot.
**[03:43] Shion**
Huh?
**[03:45] Shion**
Oh!
**[03:47] Shion**
That's amazing! You found that much?
**[03:49] Shion**
Just what we'd expect from you, Homare-san!
**[03:54] Shion**
Oh dear, you dropped—
**[03:58] Shion**
Th-Those are very
strange-looking turban shells...
**[04:01] Shion**
They look like stars...
**[04:02] Asuka**
Where are you going, Shion?
**[04:04] Mutsu**
The ocean's that way!
**[04:06] Homare**
This is a Northern Pacific sea star,
one of the few edible starfish,
**[04:10] Homare**
and it needs to be boiled.
**[04:12] Mutsu**
There's foam forming.
**[04:14] Homare**
That's due to water-soluble saponins.
**[04:17] Homare**
They can have a sterilizing effect.
**[04:18] Homare**
It will help disinfect the pot, too.
**[04:20] Mutsu**
I see. That's very reassuring,
isn't it, Shion-san?
**[04:25] Mutsu**
Don't worry, Shion-san!
**[04:27] Mutsu**
I've heard there's a region of
Kyushu where they eat starfish!
**[04:30] Shion**
It's just a new kind of turban shell...
**[04:33] Asuka**
No good. She's done.
**[04:35] Homare**
They should be just about ready.
**[04:37] Homare**
If you turn them upside
down and break them open,
**[04:39] Homare**
you'll find egg sacs, similar to sea urchins.
**[04:42] Homare**
This is the part you can eat.
**[04:44] Homare**
Here, Shion. It tastes
a lot like sea urchin, too.
**[04:50] Shion**
Your hand?
**[04:52] Asuka**
She hurt herself.
**[04:54] Homare**
She found oysters and tried
to harvest some, but...
**[04:56] Homare**
the shells are really sharp, like razors.
**[05:00] Homare**
She was trying to pry them
up with her bare hands...
**[05:04] Mutsu**
They're nice and hot!
**[05:05] Homare**
There are lots more.
**[05:07] Mutsu**
You really managed to gather a lot!
**[05:10] Homare**
Yes.
**[05:13] Shion**
It's delicious...
**[05:15] Shion**
This starfish is delicious.
**[05:19] Shion**
It's even better than a turban shell!
**[05:23] Homare**
Really? I'm glad.
**[05:26] Shion**
Thank you, Homare-san.
**[05:28] Homare**
Sure.
***SIGN*** Are You Lost?
***SIGN*** The next day, even more starfish adorned the dinner table.
**[05:31] Shion**
Really?
**[05:37] Homare**
Mutsu. Are you all right?
**[05:39] Asuka**
Hey! Hurry up you two!
**[05:42] Asuka**
You're gonna get left behind!
**[05:44] Mutsu**
A-Asuka-san really has a lot of energy.
**[05:47] Homare**
Asuka! I told you to keep your voice down!
**[05:50] Homare**
The rabbits will run away!
**[05:51] Asuka**
I know!
**[05:53] Asuka**
I'll find the rabbit first and—
**[05:56] Asuka**
Do rabbits...
**[05:58] Asuka**
When they get caught in
the trap... do they die?
**[06:01] Homare**
It depends.
**[06:03] Homare**
If they're alive, you have to finish them off.
**[06:05] Homare**
You stretch their necks out and
snap the cervical vertebrae.
**[06:08] Homare**
Can you do it?
**[06:09] Asuka**
J-Just leave it to me!
**[06:12] Homare**
The trap was over there, wasn't it?
**[06:15] Asuka**
*If it's alive, finish it off.*
**[06:17] Asuka**
* I know what I said, but if there is*
* a rabbit I'll be both happy and sad...*
**[06:22] Homare**
There!
**[06:23] Asuka**
Whoa!
**[06:24] Asuka**
No way! I can't! There's no way I can do it!
**[06:27] Homare**
Huh?
**[06:28] Homare**
Oh. I got caught on a thorn. That's all.
**[06:33] Homare**
This is the place.
**[06:37] Homare**
Nothing's sprung the trap yet.
**[06:40] Mutsu**
I suppose they won't be caught that easily.
**[06:43] Homare**
When you're facing things in nature,
things don't always go the way you—
**[06:47] Asuka**
Am I...
**[06:48] Mutsu**
...seeing things?
**[06:50] Homare**
Let's head back!
**[06:52] Asuka**
Do you think it's a rescue team?
**[06:53] Mutsu**
I hope so.
**[06:57] Asuka**
Shion!
**[06:59] Asuka**
Do you see something?
**[07:03] Shion**
I... I don't know...
**[07:07] Shion**
I thought I saw a ship.
**[07:11] Homare**
Where?
**[07:14] Shion**
I'm sorry...
**[07:16] Shion**
I'm so sorry!
**[07:18] Shion**
I just... I thought I saw...
**[07:30] Mutsu**
It's all right, Shion-san.
**[07:33] Mutsu**
Everything is all right.
**[07:35] Asuka**
Shion-san is delicate. This place
has gotta be too harsh for her.
**[07:39] Asuka**
She's not like us rough types.
**[07:42] Asuka**
Huh?
**[07:44] Asuka**
That's weird...
**[07:45] Asuka**
Huh?
**[07:47] Asuka**
I wanna go home!
**[07:50] Homare**
H-Hey...
**[07:52] Asuka**
Homare, you can cry, too!
**[07:54] Mutsu**
That's right, Homare-san!
**[07:57] Homare**
*I'm not good... with this kind of thing...*
**[08:02] Homare**
* This is the hardest thing I've had*
* to deal with since coming to this island.*
**[08:04] Homare**
*Papa...*
**(Flashback) [08:07] Jouichi**
When things are tough, when
you're sad, have a barbecue.
**(Flashback) [08:10] Jouichi**
You can overcome most
things in life with that.
**(Flashback) [08:12] Homare**
Okay!
**[08:22] Homare**
Hey, Shion.
**[08:25] Homare**
Come with me a sec.
**[08:28] Shion**
What is it?
**[08:32] Shion**
* Could it be... she's angry with me*
* for being so weepy this morning?*
**[08:42] Homare**
This is it.
**[08:43] Homare**
Usually, this place is
underwater, but it's low tide now.
**[08:47] Homare**
Dig up where you're standing.
**[08:48] Shion**
Huh?
**[08:51] Shion**
Here?
**[08:53] Homare**
*You regret what you did yet?*
**[08:54] Shion**
*My regret is deeper than the ocean...*
**[08:57] Shion**
No!
**[08:57] Shion**
I'm sorry! I was wrong—
**[08:59] Homare**
Shion.
**[09:00] Homare**
What are you doing?
**[09:02] Homare**
Hurry up.
**[09:03] Shion**
R-Right!
**[09:08] Shion**
Wh-Wha? A fish?
**[09:11] Homare**
Nice work, Shion.
**[09:13] Homare**
Before, when I was diving,
I thought maybe...
**[09:17] Homare**
Wrasse really do sleep buried in the sand.
**[09:21] Homare**
Let's catch them together, Shion.
**[09:23] Shion**
All right!
**[09:30] Homare**
Right. That should do it.
**[09:33] Shion**
Th-That's amazing. We caught so many!
**[09:36] Homare**
Yeah.
**[09:37] Shion**
Thank you, Homare-san.
**[09:39] Shion**
I... I feel a lot better...
**[09:41] Homare**
With these, we can have a barbecue today.
**[09:44] Shion**
What? How perfectly lovely!
**[09:46] Homare**
You don't have to hug me
over every little thing.
**[09:51] Homare**
*It's just as you said, Papa.*
**[09:54] Jouichi**
*Grill 'em well!*
**[09:57] Asuka**
We didn't find anything...
**[09:59] Mutsu**
No, we didn't...
**[10:01] Shion**
Where were you?
**[10:03] Girls**
Huh?
**[10:03] Asuka**
Wow! Those are fish!
**[10:05] Mutsu**
Amazing! There are so many!
**[10:07] Shion**
It's a barbecue party!
**[10:10] Asuka**
We should get ready, too!
**[10:12] Mutsu**
Yes!
**[10:15] Shion**
My, what a lovely fragrance!
**[10:17] Mutsu**
It's tea made from spicewood branches.
**[10:19] Shion**
I never thought I'd be able
to drink tea in this place.
**[10:21] Mutsu**
You can't have a party without
something delicious to drink.
**[10:25] Mutsu**
Shion-san, would you bring the cups?
**[10:28] Shion**
We don't have any cups.
**[10:30] Mutsu**
We do. They're over there.
**[10:35] Shion**
We can't!
**[10:35] Mutsu**
Shion-san, let's just compromise on this.
**[10:39] Asuka**
Now...
**[10:40] Asuka**
to our safety and health...
**[10:44] Girls**
Cheers!
***SIGN*** Ahh...
**[10:51] Mutsu**
It has such a nice aroma.
**[10:53] Shion**
It's like high grade oolong tea.
**[10:55] Asuka**
Shall we move on to the main dish?
**[10:58] Shion**
Yes!
**[11:06] Asuka**
Fish! Fish! Fish!
**[11:08] Homare**
Don't eat too quickly and choke.
**[11:12] Shion**
It's delicious!
**[11:26] Shion**
Everything's all right.
**[11:28] Shion**
Everyone! We're all going
to make it home together!
**[11:32] Girls**
Yeah!
**[11:44] Asuka**
You know, when I was a kid,
I had a rabbit as a pet.
**[11:48] Asuka**
So, to be honest, if we don't
catch one, I'm okay with that.
**[11:51] Mutsu**
Wasn't it you who said,
"Next time I'm gonna be heartless"?
**[11:56] Mutsu**
We won't survive with that
kind of half-hearted mindset.
**[11:59] Asuka**
I know. I really do.
**[12:03] Asuka**
Hey...
**[12:04] Asuka**
Doesn't this mean...
**[12:06] Mutsu**
The trap was tripped.
**[12:08] Asuka**
Seriously?
**[12:09] Mutsu**
Look. The end of the rope...
**[12:12] Mutsu**
If it's over there, that means...
**[12:16] Mutsu**
it's still alive, right?
**[12:25] Shion**
Next time, Case 6: "Rabbit Tasting."
